FIFA has announced donating $250,000 to the families of the victims of last week's disaster in Port-Said. The world football governing body's website stated that the sum will be paid into a charity account opened by Ahli, who lost more than 70 supporters in the tragedy that rocked Egypt. “I stated after the tragedy that this day was a black day for football. I'm still very shocked by what happened. Many of the victims were so young,” FIFA president Sepp Blatter said. “They were also a crucial support for their families, who now need help. The football community, including FIFA, must assist its Egyptian brothers and sisters.”
